G'day, Hawkeye, with regard to this
[1], I just wanted to clarify that it was removed because of the landing during the
Battle of Goodenough Island? If so, perhaps the wording could be tweaked a little. For instance Dean p. 218 in Australia 1943 uses the construction "first major Australian amphibious operation since Gallipoli", with a footnote about the Goodenough Island landing on 22 October 1942. Would that work in your opinion? Regards,

That would work. The reason was that both Goodenough and Lae were unopposed. Per your article on the
Huon Peninsula campaign: [Finschhafen] was the first opposed amphibious landing that Australian forces had made since Gallipoli.Hawkeye7 (

G'day, Hawkeye, thanks for your efforts. I've added the Gallipoli point back, albeit based on how Dean words it. Please feel free to tweak as you see fit. I will try to see if maybe I can fit a bit more about the advancing units themselves, but overall I think you've done a fantastic job. Cheers,
